SpreadsheetML

Greetings to all.

I am working on a requirement to create and email data in excel spreadsheet format from a backgroung process. The spreadsheet is to be formatted,i.e. bold text, various fonts, summary data, etc, and contain multiple worksheets in the workbook.

I have a rudimentry program working in which I create a flat file that is composed of Microsoft's SpreadsheetML. SpreadsheetML is Microsoft's hybrid XML for Excel. I save the file as a ".XLS" file and it is directly importable into Excel.

The programming is tedious and anything but elegant. I cannot locate any function modules that allow me to satisfy my requirements with background processing.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Steve
